Last Day of Swimming

We are finally getting ready to go back to school on monday after 3 1/2 weeks off. Yeah!!! The kids are so ready to get back to their regular schedules. However, they have loved swimming as usual. Each of the kids has really learned a lot this time.

Madison's teacher told her that she is better than some of the other kids in level 5 and she is in level 4. He said she is definitely ready to move on to level 5.



Here is her teacher talking really loud to her (she can't wear her hearing aids in the pool) and her doing the butterfly.
Gabe has also done really well. He only has a couple more things to work on to move to level 3. His teacher said his backstroke is awesome. He has made a lot of progress this session.

Eli, he has also done well. He will finally put his head all the way under the water. Which is a big deal for him. Eli's biggest issue is that he always has to go potty during the class. Even if I take him before, he can't make it just a 1/2 hour in the pool. So, sorry to his teacher for having to deal with that.

Madison is a total swimmer. She has the body for it and everything. And the boys are obviously naturals. You should think about that pool with the slide from your deck.

OMG, Madison can do the Butterfly? Think she could give me some swimming lessons?

Gabe told us he liked to swim on his back, guess he wasn't joking!

Why am I not surprised he has to go all the time? Except good for him to tell you, and not just go on his teacher! That wouldn't surprise me at all!

Troy said he was worried about Eli peeing in the water too. He told Eli that if you pee then there is a chemical in the water that turns your suit brown to show everybody that you pee'd.
